Bail Bond Coverage
In the aftermath of a self-defense incident, you may be arrested and placed in jail on bond. It’s not uncommon for individuals and their families to be unprepared for such a financial burden. Having to post bond can be a very expensive and stressful experience for everyone involved. As a member of Attorneys On Retainer, we can get you back to your life by providing up to $50,000 to post your bond and get you released from jail.
What Types of Bail Bonds Do We Cover?
AOR offers coverage for both secure and cash bonds. A secure bond is when you have to offer something valuable like cash or property to be released from jail. A cash bond is when you pay the full bail amount in cash to the court to get released from jail. While both types of bonds get you released from jail, it’s up to the court to determine which one you pay, and that’s where Attorneys On Retainer steps in to take care of the financial burden and your release from jail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does AOR offer criminal defense, civil defense, or both? And what are the limits?
Regarding self-defense-related legal matters only, AOR includes 100% of your attorneys’ fees through trial and any additional court costs and 3rd party expenses necessary for effective representation. Victim’s rights representation, civil defense, and any necessary appeals are also included without any additional fees, costs, or expenses. AOR also offers up to $50,000 toward bail, $4,000 toward scene cleanup, $1,500 toward mental health counseling services, and $1,000 toward firearm replacement reimbursement.
Does AOR include civil or compensatory damages?
Yes. We now offer up to $100,000 in civil or compensatory damages.
Why did AOR eliminate the 35% discount on attorney's fees for non-self-defense cases?
AOR no longer offers the 35% discount on attorney’s fees for non-self-defense cases because The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm (“AFF”) now accepts only self-defense cases. The attorneys at AFF are focused solely on self-defense cases and do not accept any cases from any retained matter other than self-defense cases. The only exception is when we accept a legal advocacy case to generally advance 2A rights or some other pro-freedom interest.
What is AOR’s civil liability coverage limit?
AOR includes up to $100,000 in civil liability coverage for qualifying self-defense incidents, provided through The Attorneys For Freedom Risk Retention Group, Inc. (AFF-RRG). Additionally, AOR is actively working to increase the amount of civil liability coverage available to members. Details will be available as soon as possible.
What is AOR's new red flag/emergency order coverage?
AOR now provides all members of The AOR Program and affiliates of The Attorneys On Retainer Association with up to $15,000 in legal representation coverage against or challenging emergency orders such as injunctions or orders of protection where the member’s firearm rights were suspended. You DO NOT have to be in a self-defense incident in order to receive this coverage. Additionally, the coverage does not apply to court orders issued in family law court proceedings. AOR is proud to represent members in “red flag” cases.
What is AOR's new expungement/record sealing coverage?
AOR now provides all members and affiliates of The Attorneys On Retainer Association with up to $5,000 in legal representation coverage for fees and expenses incurred on behalf of members for any petition to clear record, set aside conviction, or expunge any conviction as permitted by relevant state law resulting from a member’s involvement in a self-defense-related matter which arose entirely after the member joined AOR.
What is AOR's new online firearms education and training component?
AOR now provides all members and affiliates of The Attorneys On Retainer Association with an online training curriculum focused on the safe and legal ownership and use of firearms and other related self-defense matters.
